Kück's Hoff - Moor cheese and more

  • Farm shop

Simply Nordic—naturally without any frills!

Welcome to our farm in Forstort-Anfang!

We are the fourth generation to run our farm, located right in the Gnarrrenburger Moor, not far from the Huvenhoopsmoor Nature Reserve.
Our modern barn, home to about 120 dairy cows, and nearly all of our pastureland are located right in the raised bog. We’re committed to sustainable and environmentally friendly forage production.

Where is the cheese made?
Our cheese is made right here on-site using traditional methods. In addition, Heidi’s mobile cheese dairy from Elsdorf regularly stops by, processing our milk directly in her trailer into our unique moor cheese.
You can see how this is done at NDR-Nordstory to find out more.

What kinds of cheese do we offer?
  • Natural moor cheese with a creamy, aromatic flavor
  • Fenugreek moor cheese with a delicate, nutty flavor
  • Tomato-basil moor cheese with a fresh, Mediterranean flavor
  • Wild garlic moor cheese with a spicy, spring-like flavor (seasonal—available only in spring and summer)
  • Three-Pepper Moor Cheese with a spicy, savory flavor
All of our varieties have a maturation period of five weeks.

We also offer the “Moorgipfel” in the following varieties:
  • Moorgipfel plain
  • Moorgipfel fenugreek
Both hard cheese varieties are aged for twelve weeks and therefore have a more intense flavor.

Where can you buy our cheese?
You can purchase the cheese daily from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. in our self-service store. All varieties are pre-packaged.  Our farm store is open every Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Here, the Moorkäse is packaged right at the fresh food counter and sliced upon request. We also offer fresh cheese salad every Saturday.

What else do we have to offer?
In addition to cheese, we also offer our Moorkartoffeln, homemade Moormeladen and spices, as well as a selection of fresh and regional products (seasonal fruits and vegetables, meat and sausage products, honey, eggs, wine, juices, and coffee) from the region.  We partner with regional sales partners. You’re also welcome to put together a gift basket with us.
